Lindy Moody
A true Southerner through and through, Lindy Moody was born in the Atlanta area and grew up in a Southern family where she learned to cook - and more importantly how to eat. Her love for all things cuisine began with her mother teaching her to bake red velvet cake every Christmas. As every Southerner knows, holiday cooking in the South is somewhat of an enigma unless you were born into it, and Lindy spent the better part of her teenage years and early 20s learning to unlock the secrets of the traditions and tastes that I grew up enjoying so much. Though she grew up in Atlanta, the road of my life led me to law school before moving to Savannah where she worked as an assistant district attorney before settling in at a local private practice law firm. As a Savannah transplant, she is ever-learning the charm and complexities of Lowcountry cuisine. Her love of the ever-growing food scene here brought her to Connect and aided in her already insatiable desire to seek out the best and newest local eateries around town. Though she is a food writer by choice, and have a voracious appetite for culinary know-how that is matched only by her desire to share her experiences with anyone who will listen!
